Partial Support of the Condensed Matter and Materials Research Committee

摘要：本项目提供为期三年的部分资金，以支持美国国家科学院、工程院和医学院凝聚态物质和材料研究委员会（CMMRC）。CMMRC由来自大学、工业界和政府实验室的不同专家组成，他们为从事凝聚态物质和材料研究的社区提供专业知识和支持。他们的研究领域超越了传统的学科界限，并有助于统一凝聚态物理的其他不同领域，包括原子，分子，光学和高能物理。CMMRC开展多项活动，包括组织前沿研究领域的研讨会，分发会议纪要，这些纪要也在美国国家科学院网站上免费向公众提供。此外，它还通过两年一次的会议和外展计划促进社区成员和资助这些领域研究的机构之间的合作。通过邀请研究企业的管理者和前沿科技专家的政策领导者向委员会介绍他们的工作，CMMRC为讨论凝聚态和材料研究及其许多跨学科组成部分的主题提供了一个公共平台。此外，CMMRC还为发展国家科学院的项目做出贡献，这些项目有利于凝聚态物质和材料研究界，并协助为影响这些领域的国家科学院报告提供长期管理，例如材料研究十年调查。技术摘要：本项目为美国国家科学院、工程院和医学院凝聚态材料研究委员会（CMMRC）提供为期3年的部分支持。CMMRC的作用是充当研究界、大学、工业界和联邦政府之间的桥梁，监测社区的健康状况，主持跨学科的方法来推进凝聚态物质和材料的研究，并跟踪该领域的重大新发展。为了实现这一目标，CMMRC使用各种机制，例如发起和监督关注前沿研究领域的年度研讨会，与赞助机构合作起草研讨会会议记录，总结演讲和随后的讨论，并将其发布在科学院的网站上。CMMRC还与国家科学院合作，开发特别论坛，如与凝聚态物质和材料研究相关的专家会议和报告生成研究。该委员会每年举行两次面对面会议，允许凝聚态物质和材料研究团体的成员以及支持这些领域的机构的代表参与。CMMRC将强调与专业协会和FACA委员会的伙伴关系，与他们合作推进该领域的研究，并邀请他们的成员参加研讨会。该委员会还为学生和公众提供资源，并为发展国家科学院影响凝聚态物质和材料研究领域的活动的其他委员会和董事会提供专家建议。它还为专家们提供了一个分享他们的知识和见解的平台，记录了研讨会并将其发布在科学院的网站上供公众观看。此外，CMMRC对其帮助开发或影响凝聚态物质和材料研究界的报告提供长期管理。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

Non-Technical Abstract: This project offers a partial, three-year funding to bolster the Condensed Matter and Materials Research Committee (CMMRC) of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine. The CMMRC comprises a diverse group of experts hailing from universities, industry, and government laboratories who provide specialized knowledge and support to the communities engaged in condensed matter and materials research. Their research area transcends traditional discipline boundaries and helps unify otherwise disparate fields of condensed matter physics, including atomic, molecular, and optical and high-energy physics. The CMMRC undertakes several activities, including organizing workshops on cutting-edge research areas and distributing written summaries of the proceedings, which are also freely available to the public on the National Academies website. Additionally, it fosters collaboration among members of the community and the agencies that fund research in these domains through their bi-annual meetings and outreach programs. By inviting managers of the research enterprise and policy leaders in science and technology experts on the cutting edge to present their work to the committee, CMMRC serves as a public platform for discussing topics in condensed matter and materials research and their many interdisciplinary components. Furthermore, the CMMRC also contributes to developing National Academies' projects that benefit the condensed matter and materials research communities and assists in providing long-term stewardship of National Academies' reports that impact these fields, such as the materials research decadal survey.Technical Abstract: This project provides partial, 3-year support for the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine's ("National Academies") Condensed Matter and Materials Research Committee (CMMRC). The role of the CMMRC is to act as a bridge between the research communities, universities, industry, and the federal government, to monitor the health of the community, to host interdisciplinary approaches to advancing condensed matter and materials research, and to keep track of significant new developments in the field. To accomplish this, CMMRC uses various mechanisms, such as initiating and overseeing annual workshops focusing on frontier areas of research, working with sponsoring agencies to draft workshop proceedings summarizing the presentations and ensuing discussions, and publishing them on the Academies' website. CMMRC also works within the National Academies to develop special forums, such as experts' meetings and report-generating studies related to condensed matter and materials research. The committee conducts two face-to-face meetings annually, allowing for engagement among members of the condensed matter and materials research communities and representatives of agencies supporting these fields. CMMRC will emphasize partnerships with professional societies and FACA committees, teaming with them to advance research in the field and inviting their members to participate in workshops. The committee also serves as a resource to students and the public and provides expert advice to other committees and boards in developing National Academies activities that affect the condensed matter and materials research fields. It also provides a platform for experts to share their knowledge and insights, recording the workshops and posting them for public viewing on the Academies' website. Additionally, CMMRC provides long-term stewardship of reports that it helped to develop or that impact the condensed matter and materials research communities.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
